    I'm on JustDialSaver lite now and after 1 week so far am well happy, can check all calls made online very easy to negotiate the website. Correction their website is a mess dont sign up until you know exactly what you will be paying for the LITE option, one part says its free yet when you go to sign up it states its £4-99 per month for free ev & we calls.

    Coolsteel :cool:

    Posted my reply from JustDial on the other thread. They have now amended their application form.
  • 18866, i have tried to sign up for this service, but after going thru' the registration, my email always says that capacity is full and to try again in 6 weeks time.

    I have got 1899, and 18185, but from reading the forums here, everyone keeps saying get 18866, but i have never seen a post saying i can't sign up.

    I did send an email to 18866, asking why this, but i got what looked like an automated reply, if this is the case, why do they let you go thru' the hastle of filling it all in, then saying registration successful, only to get an email saying that you can't sign up!!!

    Surely the webiste registration should be disabled??

    Anyone else had this problem with 18866?

    I have tried signing up with my debit card, credit card and direct debit, so it can't be a problem with my payment details, as i have tried various payments.

    Sign up using your mobile phone number, once registered go back in and add your landline number.
    It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!

    Is it cheaper to use your Mobile using 18868 as well? I didn't really understand their website..I'll be signing up soon..

    Also what are all these other numbers your all having such as the 1899? I mean why not just stick to 18868?

    Also this Orchid carrier, it doesn't say on their website how it works..

    Kimberly, Just a quick reply. You keep referring to 18868. You will need to remember that the correct number is 18866 or you wont get any benefit.
